Paul Tudor Jones says recession is coming and stocks could drop another 10%

Famed investor Paul Tudor Jones believes the U.S. economy could already be in a recession amid the Fed's aggressive tightening cycle.

The founder and chief investment officer of Tudor Investment said there is a specific recession playbook to follow for investors navigating the treacherous waters, and history shows that risk assets have more room to fall before hitting a bottom.

"Most recessions last about 300 days from the commencement of it," Jones said. "The stock market is down, say, 10%. The first thing that will happen is short rates will stop going up and start going down before the stock market actually bottoms."

Apple's iPad results could return to pre-pandemic levels next year, Bank of America says

After remote school and work during the Covid pandemic created a surge in demand for iPads, Apple is likely to see year over year declines in iPad shipments for 2022 and 2023, according to Bank of America.

Analyst Wamsi Mohan said in a note to clients on Monday that iPad sales could fall to pre-pandemic levels next year.

"Although the device continues to attract a high proportion of new users (~50% of purchasers in any qtr. even pre-pandemic were new to the device), replacement rates remain muted. We see this as a function of the category being in structural decline," the note said.

On the bright side, Apple could see a rebound in 2024 as iPads purchased early in the pandemic are due for an upgrade, Mohan said.

Shares of Apple were down 0.7% in morning trading. Bank of America has a neutral rating on the tech stock.

Dollar strength likely to be key in upcoming earnings

The strength of the U.S. dollar is likely to be an important point coming up in earnings, according to Chris Larkin, managing director of trading at E*Trade from Morgan Stanley.

"The last earnings season of the year is kicking off following a week where—in typical 2022 trading fashion—there was no shortage of eyebrow-raising price moves," Larkin wrote in a Monday note. "Despite pulling back to a two-week low last Tuesday, the US dollar index bounced to end last week up more than 17% for the year, and not too far below its 20-year high."

"We may hear more in the coming weeks on the pressures an exceptionally strong dollar can have on US exports and thus, earnings of US companies, but dollar strength could also play a role in getting the Fed to "back off" from its tightening policy," he added. "Though even if continued dollar strength eventually contributes to the Fed switching from raising rates to cutting them, the timing of such a pivot remains uncertain, and might not change the downward trajectory of corporate earnings."

Today's notable analyst calls: Merck, Etsy and more

CNBC Pro subscribers can get the lowdown on the biggest calls of the day coming out of Wall Street.

Calls from Monday and over the weekend that investors are taking note of include:

Used car prices see first annual decline in more than two years

Used vehicle prices, a key driver of inflation over the past year or so, could be showing signs of letting up.

Prices in September dropped 0.1% from a year ago, according to the Manheim Used Vehicle Value Index. That's the first negative 12-month reading for the index since May 2020 and indication that a sector that had been heavily impacted by pandemic-related spending could be seeing some relief.

In the summer of 2021, for instance, used vehicle prices had been rising at a pace of more than 10% a month. A dearth of new vehicles had pushed buyers into the used market, sending prices skyrocketing.

However, in recent months, prices have receded. The Bureau of Labor Statistics, for instance, reported a 0.1% month-over-month decline in August.

Markets will get a look at fresh inflation figures Thursday when the BLS releases September's consumer price index. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones expect headline CPI to show a 0.3% monthly increase and an 8.1% annual gain.

Fed unlikely to pivot soon, El-Erian says

The Federal Reserve is probably not anywhere near a pivot from raising interest rates to cutting them, according to Mohamed El-Erian, chief economic adviser of Allianz.

"Can they stop, can they pivot? No they cannot," El-Erian said on CNBC's Squawk Box Monday morning. "They cannot because the data does not give them enough of a green light, but importantly their credibility has been hit very hard."

He added that because of this, it's likely that the Fed will overtighten and lead to a U.S. recession.

"They've gotten themselves into this hole and unfortunately they don't know how to get out of this hole," he said. "There's no ladder out of this hole."

Bond market closed for Columbus Day

Monday could see light volume with many Wall Street traders off for Columbus Day. The U.S. stock market is open Monday, but the bond market is closed.

On last year's Columbus Day, the SPDR S&P 500 Trust traded about 65 million times. That is lower than any day in September or October of this year.

While lower volume can sometimes make for a sleepy trading day, it could also contribute to outsized stock moves, as the market could be more susceptible to news events that drive knee-jerk reactions.

Rivian shares shed 10% after company recalls nearly all of its vehicles

Rivian Automotive shares dropped nearly 10% in premarket trading after the EV startup said it will recall nearly all of its vehicles due to a possible issue of a loose fastener that could make a driver lose steering control.

Services activity in China contracted in September, private survey shows

The Caixin services purchasing managers' index came in at 49.3 in September, according to a report published Saturday, a steep drop from 55 in August.

The 50-point mark separates growth from contraction. PMI readings compare activity from month to month.

The nation's Covid curbs caused services activity in China to contract in September for the first time since May, the report said.

"Companies that reported reduced activity frequently commented that the pandemic and subsequent measures to contain the virus had restricted operations and weighed on demand in September," the press release by Caixin said.
